About Me
Realization
At 9 years old (between the 3rd and 4th grades), I was sexually assaulted by an older boy while on a neighborhood sleepover.
At 52, I suffered a traumatic brain injury in a car accident involving alcohol. The floodgates holding back my demons were finally opened. Thus, began a serious downward spiral of intense mood swings, anger, and resentment, sleep deprivation, and overspending. I knew something had to give. After selling our family business and with the possibility of losing my family,
I finally realized it wasn't going to be me. My healing journey began
with a simple phone call to a crisis center.
It was then I joined the ranks of other trauma survivors.
Motivation
Trauma takes no prisoners. In fact, most people have been affected by at least one traumatic event in their lives, some multiple times. The real battle to living a fulfilled life is waged in our own minds. It's a daily struggle for those affected by trauma. We just need someone to show us how to unlock our cells, our brain cells and the self-imposed cells that keep us from moving forward, from getting past our past. Join me, join us and the other trauma survivors now living fulfilled lives.

"Fractals: A Poetic Journey for Acceptance" (Volume 1)
Over the years, I’ve penned many things about my life. Fractals is a personal collection of some of them. These poems are facets of me, fractured pieces of my personality dealing, attempting to make sense out of the significant events that happened to me. These are very similar to things that happen to others – love and hate, good times, the bad, fantasy, comedy, social commentary, spiritual, nature, war, peace, real and imaginary characters, trauma. Perhaps, there’s a little part of all of you found in one of them.
